Vegan Mashed Cauliflower (Instead Of Mashed Potatoes) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb cauliflower floret (frozen or 1 head fresh)
1/4 cup soymilk (fat free or other)
1/4 cup water
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning or 1/2 teaspoon Mrs. Dash seasoning mix
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
black pepper (to taste)
2 teaspoons cornstarch (MIXED WITH)
2 tablespoons water

Preparation

Cook frozen cauliflower by following the package directions. Cook until it is very well done (soft!) approximately 8-10 minutes. (You may also use 1 pound of fresh cauliflower). Put into a colander and drain.
While cauliflower is cooking, combine soy milk, garlic, water, and seasonings, in small saucepan over medium heat. When it reaches a boil, add the cornstarch/water mixture, stirring constantly until thickened. Set aside for next step.
When cauliflower is cool enough for you to handle, squeeze as much water out of it as possible. (Put it into a colander and pressed it with the back of a big spoon). Next, put the cauliflower into a food processor and whir on high for a minute or just mash with a fork. Add the sauce from step 2. Process/stir until the cauliflower is creamy and smooth.
Check the consistency. If it is too thick for you, add a tiny bit of soymilk, mix, and check again. Too much liquid and you will end up with soup!
Add additional seasoning to taste. Serve hot/warm. You may need to heat it quickly in the microwave before serving.
